That's it, give in to your hate, strike me down..

That's a bit biblical Stuie. You're not really taking this seriously .....are you?

You might class it as biblical if you're one of the many who class their religion as "Jedi" on the last census....

Nah! Don't get that one Stuie. I don't think Jedie's followed the bible. They were more into the force.

Hey stuie , you do realise that you've become involved in the very thing you were complaining about ^_^ Lol

In all seriousness , there's not a great deal to talk about, apart from the tanking rubbish . The Biff and BBO show (with special guest appearances by dc and Wyl) is over my head but somehow still raises a chuckle . I used to laugh at 'Laugh In' and never knew why (none of us did)

We need a poll !

Can we let Yoda, Range Rover, Neeldstherealdeal, NoMoreMrNiceGuy, 'Fletch' back for an hour so he can 'launch' one?

Hey Macca-nothing goes over your head .

Dont play innocent with me.

Jazz ,Cricket ,Comedy ,Footy-so many diverse interests-but at least you discuss them in their designated areas just like Neeld does in 2013.

Actually being factual. Have a look through Biffen and BBO's posts those are the most common themes.

mostly stuie because its what most who are posting want to talk about atmo.

other than the inquisition there is nothing more interesting.

not interested in more blah pre season crapp.

when the practice matches start & we see the semblance of form, than interest may increase.

atmo I think most are peeved at the afl, the game, the papers, & to a lesser extent the club.

Dean Bailey's forward spread and running patterns were outstanding - when they were on! It was the almost total absence of defensive structures around the ground that stuffed us around. Even really good defensive footballers like Chip found it tough to be defensive with no structure for support.

2013 will be a pleasure/pain year for mine.

PLEASURE

I don't reckon we will get beaten once by 10 goals. We will slowly become that team who is hard to beat. Most of our losses will be within 20 points.

We will surprise lazy teams like Bombers, Tigers, St. Kilda and probably beat them

Our skill level will finally rise. Blease, Toumpas, Watts, Clark, - these players are skillful and will be delivering into our forward 50.

We get to see a spine of Frawley, McDonald, Jones, Dawes, Clark and a midfield including Trengove, McKenzie, Sylvia, Grimes, Viney, Toumpas etc...

Our body size means we match it at the contest with Pies, Eagles, Hawks, Swans.

PAIN

Through inexperience and some brain-fades we will lose to teams we should beat - Brisbane, North Melbourne etc...

Our skill level will hurt us when we think we are past the worst

Our interstate record is appalling and I can't see this changing too much yet. GWS and Suns aside.

10 wins maximum for me this year.

agree, the Roos/Lyon contested footy, floods & press's changed the game, just as Bailey had begun his rebuild.

the change imo short circuited his plans & the lack of footy dept spend would not have helped.

he was caught in the crossfire of player rebellion and the youth push with list management.

its been awkward since that time.

You are not as deluded as your name suggests. There is precious little footy happening ATM. Therefore talking BS is A good alternative.

Just as many as yours sunshine..

Just imagine what Australian Media would be like WITHOUT the ABC for a moment.....

Rupert would have a field day...The ABC is far more balanced than that [censored].

WYL, I think they truly believe that would be good for us all.

thats the problem, eyes too close together, are no better than one eye, or a cyclops. they are all impaired.

We need to keep you happy Stuie.

I know you're not interested in subjects that are not cut and dry .

Neeld should have a good year in 2013 ,What?

Unless he has a bad year-which would be .....bad.

God I need a drink-I'm off to Liquorland.

Everyone's diverse Biff - in their own way . Some even get out more !

I have no idea how to get this thread back on track ... sorry Wyl

It's like Seinfeld - the thread about nothing .

Though I can see us re-visiting this thread - if we start winning games .

Cant see us winning one game in the next few weeks.

In the meantime we should continue working on the Pennski file.

But so is irreverent comedy!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
